Olympic gold medalist Thomas Ceccon spotted sleeping in park. Athletes sick after Seine swim.

Olympics embarrassment: Gold medallist spotted sleeping in park as athletes fall ill after Seine swim

Italian swimmer Thomas Ceccon was captured sleeping outside rather than in the athletes' village.

One such athlete is Italian swimming champion Thomas Ceccon, who won gold in the 100m backstroke. Ceccon had previously aired his complaints about the beds and overall conditions in the village, but the situation took a staggering turn on Sunday night.

The Italian was snapped by another athlete sleeping outside in a park on nothing more than a towel. Ceccon had clearly grown fed-up with the situation and decided he'd be better off out in the elements. The 23-year-old had previously complained about the conditions in the village after failing to make the 200m breaststroke final.



Thomas Ceccon was captured sleeping outside by another athlete at the Olympics.
“There is no air-conditioning in the village. It’s hot, the food is bad,” Ceccon had told The Sun. “Many athletes move for this reason. It’s not an alibi or an excuse, it’s the reality of what perhaps not everybody knows.
I’m disappointed that I didn’t make the final, but I was too tired. It’s hard to sleep both at night and in the afternoon. Here, I really struggle between the heat and the noise.”
